“We’re thrilled to introduce Cam Anthony and his exceptional talents to all of our friends and fans in Detroit,” said Hankins. “Cam has such a raw natural talent and his vocals are so soulful and versatile.

Cam Anthony recently released his first full-length conceptual music video, an original rendition of the One Direction song, “If I Could Fly.” The video can be viewed on the DreamWorksTV YouTube channel playlist, “Songs That Stick” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n12n6HX727U.

“I’ve worked with some of the best vocalists in music,” said legendary music producer and A&R executive Rideout. “Cam, who is not even 15 years old yet, has the focus, the instinct and most importantly, the emotion of singers who are twice his age. When he sings, he’s not just copying someone else…the soul in his voice is surprisingly authentic. Pretty amazing!!!”
